The 2021 Capital of Denmark Regional election was held on November 16, 2021, to elect the 41 members to sit in the regional council for the Capital Region of Denmark, in the period of 2022 to 2025.
Priro to this election and ever since the creation of the 5 Danish regions in the 2007 Municipal reform, the Social Democrats had been the largest party and held the chairperson's seat for the Capital Region of Denmark. Following the 2017 election, Sophie Hæstorp Andersen had won her second term as the chairperson.
However, in November 2020 it was announced that Hæstorp Andersen would become the candidate of the Social Democrats for the Lord Mayor position in the 2021 Copenhagen City Council election, and she was therefore unable to stand in this election. She would step down in June 2021, with Lars Gaardhøj taking over.
In the election result, due to electoral alliances, the Conservatives won the most seats despite not having received the highest vote share. However the parties commonly associated with the red bloc won 24 seats. It was later announced that Lars Gaardhøj would continue as the chairperson.
